Friday 13th.

We’ve got a tough choice to make tonight...

Yesterday we gave an underhand mention to Glasgow guys How To Swim. We’re out to catch them tonight. They’re playing one of our favoured haunts, Sneaky Pete’s at the night This Is Musichttp://www.myspace.com/thisismusicedinburgh. This Is Music takes place on the second Friday of every month, 8pm – 3am. Usual practice is bands 8pm – 11pm, followed by DJs ‘til 3am. These guys also have a podcast for your aural pleasure http://thisismusic.podbean.comAND you can find them on Facebook, so there’s really no excuse. (We’re a little bit jealous of their web based know-how to be honest.)

Joining How To Swim tonight is Edinburgh based Meursault www.myspace.com/meursaulta701. We’re super excited about Meursault because we heard somewhere (and we can’t remember where and hope we don’t get done in for plagiarism or what-not) that they’re like Frightened Rabbit meets The Postal Service.

If you can’t make it for the bands thenBroken Recordswww.myspace.com/brokenrecordsedinburgh are following them up with a DJ set from 11pm. We’ll try to stay off the whisky this time, and hope to see you there.

A message: "Hi guys. We said we’d get a bit more organised. We managed to write the above. We hope you like it. But regrettably I’ve been hit by Friday 13th, and have very recently been made aware of some unexpected and slightly distressing news. This may mean that we have to take a break for a bit. Hopefully we'll be able to bring you something, but it may not be as good as we’d like. All in all this has been an awful week to start the project – thank you for bearing with us." - J.We wish you peace, love, and a misfortune-free Friday 13th. xxx
